Last week the weather felt like fall. The leaves are changing colors. Mornings have been brisk. A serious chill permeates the night and early morning air. I took out a wool blanket and even put on the heat one night.

Plus I made pancakes one morning. Nothing says pancakes like a cold morning. I've found that I'm generally not a huge fan of buckwheat flour. The taste is a bit severe to me. But I think I found a way to play with it. I used a bit less than normally called for and added brown sugar. These pancakes were great!

I thought that I'd never buy buckwheat flour again, but I think I changed my mind. These pancakes will go into the regular cold morning breakfast rotation.

I just LOVE buckwheat pancake (yes, singular--I can barely manage one!), but I cannot believe how impossible it is to find a restaurant that serves that variety! Seems silly, doesn't it? I think the texture and taste is wonderful.

cynthia - I guess buckwheat is so heavy. I think of it more as something to use during really cold weather, so I can see why you wouldn't have it. I'm going to try the yogurt again in a few weeks I hope.

k - I think you would love to experiment with these!

parisbreakfasts - I had a great time Carol! Thanks!

tracy - Thank you! The trip did go well. I'll be be busy posting about it for at least a couple of weeks I'm sure. ; )
